Retirement and forum shutdown (17 Jan 2022)
Hi,
John Howell who has managed the forum for years is getting on and wishes to retire from the role of managing it.
Over the years, he has managed the forum through good days and bad days and he has always been fair.
He has managed to bring his passion for fish keeping to the forum and keep it going for so long.
I wish to thank John for his hard work in keeping the forum going.
With John wishing to "retire" from the role of managing the forum and the forum receiving very little traffic, I think we must agree that forum has come to a natural conclusion and it's time to put it to rest.
I am proposing that the forum be made read-only from March 2022 onwards and that no new users or content be created. The website is still registered for several more years, so the content will still be accessible but no new topics or replies will be allowed.
If there is interest from the ITFS or other fish keeping clubs, we may redirect traffic to them or to a Facebook group but will not actively manage it.
I'd like to thank everyone over the years who helped with forum, posted a reply, started a new topic, ask a question and helped a newbie in fish keeping. And thank you to the sponsors who helped us along the away. Hopefully it made the hobby stronger.
I'd especially like to thank John Howell and Valerie Rousseau for all of their contributions, without them the forum would have never been has successful.
Thank you
Darragh Sherwin
Any idea's for a fish for a 30L Nano?
I was thinking that i would like this tank to house just the one fish so my first thought was a male Betta,but i know i would get bored with him in a couple of weeks(sorry Betta lovers) so then i got thinking of a Dwarf Puffer,there is a few nice one's out there but as it's only 30L i think it might be a bit to small for it.
Has anyone got a suggestion as to what fish would suit and be happy on it's own in a 30L tank?,and have you seen any around the Dublin area? Preferably a bit unusual but not that fussed really
Here is a picture of the tank as it is right now but decor can be changed to suit:
Any help appreciated,cheers

I wouldn't go with the puffer idea personally.....
The majority of puffers require brackish setups and full salt setups
Bleeding heart tetra's? Something along those lines?
Cheers for the reply Hammie.....Although the Puffers that i was thinking about are Freshwater,Brackish water wouldn't really be an issue in keeping them,it's just the thought of keeping one in a 30L cube just doesn't sit well in my head for some reason,but i'm sure there's many out there keeping them in something similar without a problem.
Bleeding Heart Tetra's wouldn't really be my thing dude,kinda looking for something a bit different that i would not of kept in the past,and as it's only 30L i'm a bit limited.
Thanks again

Now this fish could be exactly what i'm after,i could maybe even fit 3-4 in this tank (1M 2-3F).......I could even leave the tank as it is,just add a bit more Anubias for cover and spawning and then happy days
Now for the hard part.........Were would i find these fish?.....Cheers Homer
